Welcome to Queensland
Queensland offers a great career and a great life.
We welcome skilled and business migrants to work and live in Queensland and contribute to a brighter future for themselves and their families. Known as the “sunshine state” with Australia’s happiest people, Queensland has a stable and growing economy, an unmatched lifestyle, and vibrant communities.
Migration Queensland is the Queensland Government’s agency responsible for skilled and business visa nomination.
Important announcement
On 2 September 2025, the Australian Government announced the total number of places in its 2025-26 Migration Program. But it is still finalising state and territory allocations.
Queensland will not open the 2025-26 State Nominated Migration Program until our final program allocation is confirmed.
You can however submit your Registration of Interest (ROI) for Queensland nomination from 19 September 2025, in preparation for the program opening.
